    Thank you for not only owning a muscle car, but owning a muscle car that runs better than a 14.5 in the 1/4. I would say a good 95% of those things look and sound amazing, and then run like a turd. Chevelles are by far one of my all time favorites.

    And I love my T56. I have about $2400 into it in parts alone, so hopefully I don't break it anytime soon. It's got the HD viper input and main shafts, along with all the other upgraded internal parts. It's been holding 600+ HP so far lol. Can't wait to get to the track this coming season and see what my car does. Hoping for a low 11 to high 10 at 130+ mph. Guess we'll find out in a few months.
    My pleasure! haha I know what you mean how 95% are turds. They make a bad name for the "muscle car." I was looking into doing the same things you have done to the tranny and possibly into even faceplating. It was just cheaper when I blew mine up to spend $400 on a transmission that is already strong enough. Sounds like your car would easily run high tens if you can hook even a little bit. I'd be curious how many mph you'll get out of it. I try to get up to epping at least once a month with a few friends. Maybe we can set up a day. Always more fun with people you know!

    • I'm definitely down for a track day. I'm already planning a road trip in early May to do a 6 hour drive to Buffalo, NY and meet up with a group of 3rd gen F-body owners. Probably make a weekend trip out of it. I built my car to drive, so I can't wait to start racking up the miles on it!

                    LMAO, pretty sure I saw a vid where they raced one of those against a corvette that was on land beside the lake, and it beat it 0-60. Thats insane dude, having that much HP in a freaking jet ski!!

                      I'll most likely be using the charger housing they put in the X model skis (shown above) with a larger et137 supercharger wheel and some 48 pound injectors.

                            Man, that dyno chart looked terrible lol. The line looked like an EKG graph. Tune definitely needs work!! And BTW, that saab made 415 WHP at 32 PSI. Man, thats a lot of boost for that HP. Seems like it'd be a time bomb in a street car!

                            I love speedo vids though. This is one I had of my TA. The vid was back when I was only running 6 PSI, and it made 402 RWHP at that boost. Need to make another vid now that I'm at 11 PSI, and over 500 rwhp.
